Neymar's transfer to Paris Saint Germain is on the verge of completion after Barcelona revealed that the Brazilian didn't train with the squad on Wednesday.

Hours later, the club released a statement that confirmed his decision to leave the Catalan giants. Lionel Messi then said his goodbye's on Instagram by saying: "It was a huge pleasure to have shared all these years with my friend Neymar I wish you all good luck in this new stage of your life."

According to RMC, Neymar will undertake a medical with PSG on Thursday before the club officialise his signing that evening or Friday morning.

News surrounding his transfer is emerging thick and fast, and the latest news involves his potential squad number.

Neymar will reportedly wear the number 10 shirt at the Parc des Princes in 2017/18, according to Brazilian outlet Placar

The report states that the 25-year-old will take Javier Pastore's current squad number, as he looks to emulate those who wore the famous shirt in years gone by.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Ronaldinho previously wore the iconic number, but will Neymar be able to cope with the expectations from such a huge transfer fee?

He certainly has the pedigree to succeed at PSG. He has enjoyed a prolific spell in Spain winning two La Liga titles, three Copa del Reys and the Champions League trophy in 2014/15.

The Brazilian has netted an impressive 105 goals from 186 appearances in all competitions, but now he will set his sights on conquering Ligue 1 with his good friend Dani Alves.

From promotional billboards in Barcelona featuring Neymar being taken down, to his agent updating his social media in Paris, it looks inevitable that the former Santos winger will join PSG in the coming days.

Thoughts on his move to the Parc Des Princes? Will he continue his success at PSG?

Let us know your thoughts.
